Digital Atsc

what does atsc/ntsc mean on dvd recorder with digital tunrt?

what does atsc/ntsc on a dvd recorder with digital tuner mean.
and will it work with cable without a box. thanks

I disagree with Scott’s conclusion.

Yes, atsc is digital, for use with antennas in the US.
Yes, ntsc is the old analog standard no longer broadcast in the US.
However, ntsc is used on raw cable at my house and my old tv works just fine on it without a box.
